Verify Your Download

Verifying your download is an important step: we generate a "checksum" for elementary OS images and recommend that you verify that your download matches that checksum before trying to install. This ensures that you've received the full, complete download and that it is not corrupted.

Assuming you downloaded elementary OS to your Windows Downloads folder, open the Command Prompt in Windows and run the following command:

CertUtil -hashfile Downloads\elementaryos-7.1-stable.20230926rc.iso sha256

It should produce the output:

SHA256 hash of Downloads\elementaryos-7.1-stable.20230926rc.iso:
5c7f6b388e5787c366587985301ea05ab16e4cc0de3be2b3d6a559ce81a2f102

If the checksum does not match, you may need to re-download your copy of elementary OS and ensure it completes downloading before re-verifying it.

Lag ein installasjonsdisk

To create an elementary OS install drive you'll need a USB flash drive that is at least 4 GB in capacity and an app called "Etcher".

Download Etcher

Open Etcher, then:

1. Plug in your spare USB flash drive
2. Select your downloaded .iso file using the "Select image" button
3. Etcher should automatically detect your USB drive; if not, select the correct drive
4. Click the "Flash!" button. It may take a moment to get started.

Once complete, continue to boot from the install drive.

Booting From the Install Drive

For å starta denne installasjonsprosessen, må du starta datamaskina frå installasjonsdisken.

• Om datamaskina di er påskrudd, byrjar du med å putte i installasjonsdisken og så starta maskina på nytt.
• Dei fleste maskinene vil la deg endra oppstartsmodus ved å trykka på ein spesiell knapp. Knappen er vanlegvis F12, men av og til Esc eller ein anna funksjonsknapp. Sjekk kva som står på skjermen din for å vera sikker på kva knapp som er rett.
• Press F12 (or the appropriate key) and select the install drive—usually "USB-HDD" or something containing the word "USB", but the wording may vary. If you choose the incorrect drive, your computer will likely continue to boot as normal. Just restart your computer and pick a different drive in that menu.
• Shortly after selecting the appropriate boot drive, you should be presented with the elementary OS splash screen. You may now follow the on-screen instructions which will guide you through the rest of the process.

Boot Errors

If your Mac doesn't recognize your elementary OS USB Install Drive in the boot menu, you may need to create an elementary OS Install DVD instead. To create one, insert a blank DVD, right click on the ISO file in Finder, and select "Burn elementaryos-7.1-stable.20230926rc.iso to Disc". When complete, attempt to boot again from the Install DVD.
